I saw they are playing in Biloxi in April, I kind of want to go. What do you guys think of them, to me they were the epitome of 90s alternative. Their sound was better than a lot of what was out there at the time imo. Listen through their best of, 7 Year Itch. Good stuff

They're very poppy. I admit I can hum along. But not someone I would go see.

Yeah. Might be some nostalgia in my glasses too. Definitely poppy but I always thought their sound was a bit more refined than the other 90s alt out there like Bush.

Saw them in the 90s at a festival & their music just bores me. But they just happened to do one of the best covers of Crazy Train that I have ever heard. That was a shock.

A poppy rock band from the 90's is alternative now?

Henry County's own, when guitar solos were still a thing.

They have tons of good songs but their lead singer is an insufferable douchebag who used to ruin concerts with his idiocy. Maybe he’s mellowed out with age

Worse ways to spend a Friday night if tix are reasonable.

I wouldn’t circle it on my calendar and make a trip but it’s a fine enough plan.

God I hate them. My blood still boils when I hear "Shine". I knew at the time that the whole take from the OG Seattle bands that the scene was already dead by '93... was true. I heard that song and how it took some surface elements of grunge but made it all sound so dopey and pandering and I immediately knew all the wrong people were coming on board. It was the beginning of the end.

I liked the random guitar solo in that shine song when I was younger.

I know 1 other song but I dont remember the title. It's like they had 2 decent hits in the 90s
